Sadler

I bought this teapot from a local charity shop. I was very excited at my purchase and could not wait to use it. I also decided to find out a little bit more about "Sadler". 

James Sadler was founded in 1882. It is one of the leading manufacturers of tea pots in the UK. James Sadler built a factory in Burslem in Stoke on Trent and made fine earthenware teapots. He soon became famous and everyone wanted a Sadler teapot!
These first teapots were made using a red clay with a dark brown glazed surface. These teapots were affectionately known as "Brown Betty". These are still in production today using a more elegant white clay.
